THA SPEED FAMILY

Head Trainer & Co-Founder

Meet
Terrance
Wenzel.

Terrance Wenzel is a certified personal trainer, performance scientist, and lifelong athlete with a résumé that speaks for itself. A 2016 Minnesota State 100M Dash Champion — clocking a blazing 10.65 seconds — and a 99th-percentile 40-yard dash of 4.42 seconds, Terrance has competed and excelled at every level of athletics, from high school stardom to professional football and beyond.

As a Top 300 ESPN-ranked recruit and Offense/Defense Under Armour All-American in 2014, Terrance earned Junior College 1st Team All-Conference and 3rd Team All-American honors, gained Division II football experience, and competed professionally in outdoor and indoor football — including the AFL — where he was named Special Teams Player of the Year as a kick returner and a TAL Arena League Champion. His reach extended overseas with professional football contract offers from abroad.

On the track, Terrance is a multiple school record holder in the 100M and 200M dash, a 51-second 400M runner, and boasts a 37-inch vertical and a 4.4 pro shuttle run. In flag football he reached the pinnacle — a 2-time Flag Football World Champion, 2-time Defensive MVP on the World Championship Tour, Elite 11 selection at cornerback, and MPFL All-Star.

But Terrance's story is about far more than accolades. Through knee surgeries and personal challenges, he learned firsthand that perseverance matters just as much as talent. He believes everyone deserves a second chance and that meaningful change is always within reach.

As a devoted follower of Jesus Christ, Terrance credits his faith as the force that led him to his true calling — giving back. He co-founded THA Speed Family LLC to bring elite training, discipline, and life lessons to youth and adults across Minnesota. Armed with a college degree, CPR certification, NSCA Personal Training certification, and a Certified Performance and Sport Scientist (CPSS) credential, he is ready to develop the fastest, most explosive athletes Minnesota has ever seen.

Co-Founder & Operations

Meet
Lacey
Elznic.

Lacey Elznic is a 26-year-old runner, mother, and the operational heartbeat of THA Speed Family LLC. Her fitness journey didn't begin on a track or in a weight room — it started with a decision in her senior year of high school to simply show up and push her limits. What began as a way to stay active quickly became something far greater: a powerful outlet for mental strength, personal growth, and resilience.

After the birth of her daughter, Lacey faced one of the most challenging chapters of her life — postpartum depression and anxiety. Rather than retreat, she laced up her shoes and ran. Through endurance training, she found not only her physical strength returning, but a renewed sense of identity beyond motherhood. Running gave her clarity, purpose, and the confidence to become who she is today.

Lacey's story is proof that you don't need a lifelong athletic background to transform yourself through fitness. You just have to be willing to start. That belief is woven into everything THA Speed Family LLC stands for — meeting every athlete exactly where they are and helping them discover what they are truly capable of, both physically and mentally.

Behind the scenes, Lacey is the engine that keeps THA Speed Family running smoothly. She manages all business operations, athlete scheduling, and marketing — ensuring every client has a seamless experience from their very first inquiry to their last session. Her passion for using fitness as a tool for transformation, inside and out, makes her not just a co-founder, but the soul of this organization.
